Teddy Bear Tea Embroidery Pattern

Crafters, makers and creatives - I think we could all use something cheerful this winter as the cold temps continue on. Therefore, I created this embroidery pattern for you to enjoy. If you get a chance to try it, please do share with Art-of-Crafts on social media!

This is a great craft for adults and children alike - children will need supervision with needles and scissors.

Step Two - Place a piece of thin, solid colored fabric over the printed pattern. Holding the pattern and fabric up to a sunny window is an easy way to trace the image, or use a light box if you have one available. Other methods are available if you search online - Pinterest is a great place to start! I like to use a simple soft pencil for tracing patterns.

Step Three - Choose to include the entire image in your creation, or just the parts you enjoy. In my case, I wanted to only include the cute little bear and teacup.

Step Four - After tracing your image, center it in your embroidery hoop and begin stitching.

Here are some embroidery ideas for this particular pattern:

- A simple running stitch works great for the outline of the bear - French knots are perfect for the bear's nose and the center of the bow tie - Double up on stitches for the teacup to create a solid color

Step Five - Hang your finished embroidery on the wall using the hoop as the frame, or take your creation out of the hoop and add it to a pillow case, table cloth or other decorative item.

Step Six - Don't forget to share your finished piece with us in the comments below!
